This document presents a character table created by puntCAT (.cat gTLD
Registry) for Catalan language (sometimes also referenced as Valencian).

This table is in compliance with the ICANN Guidelines for the
Implementation of Internationalized Domain Names and is intended for
publication in the IANA IDN Character Table Registry.

The following characters are given in their Unicode code points in
format U+XXXX, where X is a hexadecimal digit. The range of code points
is expressed as U+XXXX..U+YYYY, where XXXX and YYYY are the first and
last Unicode code point in the range.

The character subset that can be used in IDNs has been chosen to
accommodate the needs of the Catalan language. After the NamePrep
normalization process, as described in RFC 3491, following characters
may appear in the domain name:

• The NamePrep process maps all characters to lowercase characters,
therefore, upper case characters do not appear in the list

• the “ela geminada”, represented in Unicode as U+013F U+004C LL·
(up-per case) resp. U+0140 U+006C ll· (lower case), is transliterated
by the NamePrep process into the character sequence U+006C l U+00B7 ·
U+006C l which appears in the list above. Therefore, it can be used in
domain names.

• The character U+00B7 · (middle dot) cannot be used individually, but
only in combination with both preceding and following letter L.
